This was a fairdinkum discussion at my Golf Club yesterday, and one of the Club's characters came out with this. I have no idea whether he realised just how subtle/clever it was, but it did happen.

Usual rubbish talk among blokes about their sex lives......and said character says he is doing okay.......and if there is lack of wifely assistance, he just pisses orf to the dunny for a wank. His wife suspects, and sings out to him.....'What are you doing in there??'

Had a mate that worked in his “retirement job” as a janitor in a primary school…He related to me the story of this one teacher of the preps there who used to dress in these ultra mini-skirts with black stockings on legs that went right up to Aplha Centauri…and she used to walk like a model too…used to drive his testosterone level through the roof….at his age!

One day he’s at one end of the corridor sweeping up the crushed cheezels and she comes out of the furtherest room and comes slowly strutting down the linoleum on ultra-high heels…”tak – tak – tak – tak” straight toward him…he stopped sweeping, leant on the broom handle and when she came near he said ;‘You know, Pammy…I’m not a religious man and I don’t believe in God…but when I look at you , I sure as hell start to believe in the devil!”

He was hauled into the principles office and nearly got the sack!

Abbott & Co are going to cause the mother and father of all recessions—be prepared!

There are some real Walter Mitty’s on the web, like IQ maintaining he is married with three kids, an engineer “managing projects worth tens of millions of dollars” when he is on his computer every night just a dull little call centre operator with drug and booze dependency problems, but here is a real life Walter Mitty:

Former treasurer Peter Costello says he “probably” would have led the Liberal Party to election victory in 2010 if John Howard had handed over the party reigns to him.

In an explosive interview with The Australian published on Monday, Mr Costello, who served as treasurer between 1996 to 2007, said he warned Mr Howard he would lose the election.

“I said: ‘You are going to lose. You are going to lose your seat. It is time to go’,” Mr Costello said.

“He wouldn’t go. So I had decided at that point I had done as much for the party and as much as I could for the country.

“It was time for me to begin a new chapter. And I thought the party should be able to turn over a new leaf.”

I doubt Peter ever said that. When the counting of votes to see if Howard should be ousted or not was taking place that APEC week Costello was idling (his favorite occupation) in Melbourne. But how wet is “He wouldn’t go [so I just said f*ck it and did nothing.]”

It goes on and gets better:

“If I had run against Howard in 1995, I might have beaten him. I might have. But, again, the party would have torn itself apart…”

“I think the right decision was to bring him back and we won the [1996] election.”

Mr Costello also alleged new Prime Minister Kevin Rudd offered him several postings overseas after the Howard government lost – something he said was a sign Labor feared him becoming opposition leader.

“That was certainly Rudd’s view.”

Nobody but Costello thought Costello was anything special or to be worried about. Rudd appointed several ex–LNP pollies to high positions but it didn’t lead to a more consultative, collegiate, bipartisan or whatever Rudd was trying to achieve. Fear? bwahahahaha!

Also, Howard and Downer (what an appropriate name!) had no right to bilaterally dispose of the Leadership that was essentially the unique gift of the whole Party room. Costello had a duty to present himself as a candidate, but lacked the guts—a real Walter Mitty type if ever I saw one!
